7/10
Underrated
30 June 2015
This film deserves a better score (5.8 at the time of this review). It's a good looking, high quality film that's well directed and edited by José Manuel Cravioto. If you're somewhat cynical and expecting a formulaic and predictable escape and revenge plot you will be nicely surprised by Rock Shaink Jr. and Keith Kjornes very well written screenplay that delivers unexpected twists and revelations as it unfolds. The running time is slightly short but quite a lot happens in that time, yet you are drawn in without it ever feeling rushed, the pacing is perfect. Richard Tyson is outstanding and Tina Ivlev is a revelation delivering what for her has to be a landmark performance. I hope to see them both in more great films because, with their performances here, they deserve it. It's a solid effort that's worth watching. Overall I give it a 7.
